... of body temperature is limited and sometimes even prevented by the actions of endogenous antipyretic neuropeptides like arginine vasopressin (AVP), adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) and melanocyte-stimulating hormones (MSHs) liberated within the brain or systemically during fever. For AVP, most experimental...
